Chennai:
The 1.6 km-long pedestrian skywalk proposed on Poonamallee High Road connecting Chennai central is likely to be cleared during the next heritage conservation committee meeting.
CMDA sources said the site of the skywalk, which would help connect pedestrians to more than 10 different points including Chennai Central, Moore Market Complex, Madras Medical College, Southern Railway head quarters and Government General Hospital, was inspected by the Heritage Conservation committee along with other department officials on Tuesday.
CMDA sources said that the proposal for the skywalk would be discussed with other stake holders like government hospital, metro rail who are involved in the project before being discussed during the next heritage conservation committee meeting.
“We are going to hold a coordination committee meeting with all the departments involved in the next few days before deciding on the project,” CMDA sources said.
Interestingly, the proposal has already got the nod of Southern Railways. Sources said the proposal would ease the movement of pedestrians in the crowded stretch.
